The 2024 Bondar Violet Hour Shiraz is a 96-point Rayner Vineyard Shiraz from mature vines planted predominantly on deep sandy soils with ironstone, with a smaller component from clay and limestone. Darker and spicier than previous releases, the 2024 combines blackberry, black cherry, violet, tapenade, black tea, cassia and savoury herbs with fine tannins, freshness and remarkable transparency. Awarded 96 points and Top 100 status by Nick Ryan plus 95+ points and Special Value Wine by Halliday Wine Companion\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bondar","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51155044958510,"sku":"LV-BONDAR-VIOLETHOUR-2024-750ML","price":36.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0950\/5010\/5134\/files\/BondarVioletHourShiraz2024.png?v=1788167471","url":"https:\/\/liquidvibe.com.au\/products\/bondar-violet-hour-shiraz-2024","provider":"liquidvibe.com.au","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
